1944 Omega 30T2

Watchwearer · Jan 24, 2024

Hi all,
I've got this awesome Omega, it used to belong to my great grandad.
I love wearing the watch, but I'd like to find an original crown for it. I know this is a difficult task but I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
It's a Dennison 13322 case, movement code 10765736 so 1944. Movement 30T2

Cheers.

Since your watch has a locally made case and is from 1944, there is a good chance that the original crown was unsigned.

I would say your best move is to try to find another watch with the same dial and case shape online and visually match the crown to a generic one from CousinsUK or another UK supplier. Make sure that a watchmaker takes the measurements to ensure a proper fit.

IMHO, the modern Omega signed crown you have looks good and I would leave it alone.

Lovely watch, I wouldn’t fret too much about crown, as @gatorcpa says the current crown looks just fine and not out of place.
